Just a guess but it might make a good arctic/antarctic winter research
vessel. It's wide so it wont capsize easily and the main area is out of the
water making easier to climate control and also see over large waves and
swells. It could also be a rescue ship going over the top of a damaged boat
and pulling victims straight up reducing the danger in jumping into the water
to be retrieved by a helicopter.
